Fished in very changeable conditions - from T-shirt weather to freezing northerlies! Ended the day with a few thornback rays (all returned) and some cod "in the box". Had to hunt around the channel to find the fish, we got there in the end!

MARCH 2012 - The offshore wrecking has proved to be consistant on recent trips with good catches of pollack and occassional ling.All fish being caught on lures with the rhubarb and custard sidewinder accounting for most fish although other lures such as red gills and other coloured sidewinders have had their moments.Pictured is Peter Gillett alias " SHREK" holding up one of the pollack he caught and wearing his new Shrek hat given to him for his birthday by me the skipper.Peter was using 15Ib class tackle with a flying collar rig and a sidewinder lure.
